Several people encountered a level 12 ferocious beast and fled in a panic, but they were still injured, especially Bai Ruohuan, who was injured in a fatal area and was dying.
It was then that Jun Hongbo and Yun Wenjing experienced for the first time the panic of possibly losing a friend.
It was also at that time that they met the little beggar in a remote and deserted village at the junction of the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest and the Qingyun Realm.
This little beggar was none other than Su Nian Zhang.
Su Nianzhang was originally a villager in that village. However, due to the fight between two Kongming-stage cultivators, the whole village was affected and almost all the villagers died overnight.
Su Nianzhang was sad and desperate. He had just buried his parents when he ran into Jun Hongbo and two others who were lying in front of him seriously injured.
After experiencing such a great unexpected disaster and losing his parents because of cultivators, if it were anyone else, he would be filled with hatred and would want to kill all the cultivators and warriors in the world.
However, Su Nianzhang used the remaining pills and food on him to save the three people, and also allowed Bai Ruohuan to hold on until the servants of the three families followed the trail and found him.
Jun Hongbo looked nostalgic and sad as he looked at Xiyue's face and whispered, "When I first met Xiao Nian, he was dirty, thin and small, but after raising him for a few months, he became more and more handsome. His delicate features and skin whiter than a woman's are almost comparable to yours, Xiyue. And we also accidentally discovered that he has an extremely strong talent in medicine. He was able to pass the second level of the Life and Death Hall after only three months of exposure to medicine. At that time, he was only eighteen years old, even one year younger than you, Xiyue."
Jun Hongbo smiled sarcastically, "But now that I think about it, I would rather not have discovered his talent, not raised him so beautifully, or even taken him out of that deserted village. In that way, he might have lived a better life."
Xi Yue said calmly, "You sent him to Tianyi Valley?"
Jun Hongbo laughed at himself and said, "Yes! We sent him to Tianyi Valley. Because the instructor of Tianyi Valley said that he was just a small doctor and couldn't enter the inner gate, we even went to find that beast Lou Shenming."
"At that time, the three of us were unruly and disliked most of the teachers and students in Tianyi Valley, but we only respected and feared Lou Shenming. Now I think about it, what kind of scheming must this person have to be able to disguise himself for hundreds of years?"
With Lou Shenming's guarantee, Su Nianzhang easily entered the inner gate of Tianyi Valley.
Moreover, Lou Shenming also valued Su Nianzhang very much. He often kept Su Nianzhang alone to teach him, and even announced to the entire inner sect of Tianyi Valley that he wanted to accept Su Nianzhang as his third disciple.
Because of Lou Shenming's preference for Su Nianzhang, his other two disciples, Xiao Muyu and Yun Feifei, were extremely disgusted with Su Nianzhang and even tried every means to make things difficult for him, but they were severely reprimanded by Lou Shenming.
Soon, everyone in the inner sect of Tianyi Valley knew that Su Nianzhang was Lou Shenming's most beloved disciple, and might inherit his mantle one day in the future.
More and more people tried to curry favor with Su Nianzhang, and his fame in Tianyi Valley grew.
"At the beginning, Xiao Nian was also very happy. When she talked about Lou Shenming, her words were full of respect and admiration. Xiao Nian lost both of her parents, and we can all see that Xiao Nian loved Lou Shenming like a father."
"But gradually, Xiao Nian smiled less and less, and his face was often pale and tired. But when we asked him what happened, he smiled and said that nothing happened, he was just too tired from refining medicine." (To be continued)
